Hi Ketan,

Could you give some examples of important points that are not marked
in Mumbai? The maps are standard and the pricing has nothing to do
with the quality of the maps that are used. You can indeed register
and use mywayfinder.com. You need to set a password from your phone
and then login. Services like yellow pages are indeed not available in
India but that has nothing to do with the price that you have paid for
the product. This is a Wayfinder issue.

The local distributer of Wayfinder Navigator which is the mainstream
product is mapmyindia who you can visit at http://www.mapmyindia.com.
They may be able to help with map quality issues.

Also, do remember that areas are known by their proper names on the
maps. There are places in Delhi that are known by their common names.
These days though I can see a few common names crop up on to the maps.
I assume that the same will be true for Mumbai.

Re: [AI] query from thahir

2009-03-16 Thread Subramani L
I am forced to share something very similar that happened to me. I
started to smoke as early as when I was 14, long before I realised RP
would cause blindness to me. However, smoking wasn't something I could
immediately get rid of and I found it to be the best way to bond with
everyone especially with those of my age group who are quite fine with
it. But I started to realise people -especially those who unnecessarily
placed me on a higher pedestal thanks to my blindness- did judge me on
the basis of that one habit. Those who spoke with me well refused to say
hello after seeing me smoke. Ironically, a large number of them are
smokers themselves (so much for Indian culture).

Subject: Re: [AI] query from thahir

Well, responding to my point about   Indians shunning to describe even
the essentials, you were found to dwell on cultural issues, so you say.
So, may I construe your stand in this matter of superiority of Indian
culture over western to imply that such omissions are justified?
So curious!!!
And Shadab you have also wrote:
"But the one thing I am certain of is that pornography, from the
standpoint of psychology, is wrong - not to talk about need. Haven't you
studied it in your course?"
So, Psychology is far from a precise natural science as you seem to
imply by demanding a clear statement about pornography being wrong.
Pornography may be harmful in some instances as it may encourage
irresponsible or nonconsensual sex, but more often than not, it serves
as bulwark against such activities by permitting a momentary ventilation
to temporary passions without taking them out on unwilling and often
unknowing persons.
Hardly few rapists are active readers of pornography.
And I still   am at a loss to comprehend  as to why the visual inability
of a person should deprive him/her of all aspects of life.
It is tantamount to saying, as many people say, that the blind should
only recite bhajans and not romantic songs or even the sad songs for
that matter.
Hence, If the moderator, without determining the questions of
culture/morals or blindness being a compulsion to be good/harmless,
decides that the focus of this list does not permit giving out sites
dealing with accessible pornographic material, then let it be so, but
please do not harp on superiority of Indian or any  other culture, or
moral values of sexual forbearance, or blind being under an obligation
to be saintly or asexual for that matter.
I vividly remember an instance in my school life when four of my
schoolmates were involved in fornication (termed forced sex) later, a
question was raised in Maharashtra legislative assembly, as to how these
foursome got into a theater and then into a lodge despite their
blindness and committed the act???
Though remorseful about the event, we nonetheless regarded it as step
towards integration and were more outraged at the stupid MLAs who truly
reflected constricted mindset of society at large.

And for those who are interested, the site
http://the-clitoris.com
is a beautiful and accessible site on feminine sexuality, and not
clearly pornographic as it seems to be defined here.

Rajesh

[AI] Wayfinder Access

2009-03-16 Thread Ketan Kothari
Hi friends,

I have just installed the licensed version of wayfinder access and
realized that many of the important POI's are not mapped in Mumbai.
Besides, quite a few of the services are not available in India such
as white and yellow pages, public transport etc.  I can understand
that since we are offered special price this may have happened but
would volume not work in our favour?  I mean that if some of these
services were to be introduced and the maps were to be updated
periodically
 would it not happen that more of us would go for it?  I give  credit
to Saksham for negotiating the special price and would request them to
look into it.

Also, there is no support for Indian users.  We are not even
registering at mywayfinder.com.  I would appreciate comments from
fellow wayfinder users.  I do admit that I have started loving the
product but it is like "I have a little but would be happy with a
little more".  Thank you.

[AI] Country's first Multilingual Braille Library Project for Visually Handicapped in Pune???

2009-03-16 Thread M.K. Prasanna
Country's first Multilingual Braille Library Project for Visually Handicapped 
to be launched in city
/India PRwire/ - Country’s first Multilingual Braille Library Project for 
Visually Handicapped consisting two Braille Libraries sponsored by a Rotary 
Matching Grant Project implemented by Rotary Club of Pune Westend, in 
Association with Rotary Club of Eau Gallie, Florida, USA, and a matching grant 
from Rotary Foundation and developed by city based companies Modular Infotech 
Private Limited and Automatic Control Equipments Will soon be launched in the 
city
The Braille Library for use by visually challenged persons, and having a number 
of novel features will be launched at the hands of noted social activist Anil 
Awachat at the SM Joshi Hall on on TuesdayTwo city based institutions - Niwant 
Andh Mukta Vikasalaya, Viman Nagar, Pune, and Nirmalya Trust Bhandarkar Road, 
Pune - will house these libraries.
Speaking to reporters MR. Sachin Kadam, President of the Rotary Club Pune 
Westend The objectives of the project are - To set up reading libraries for the 
visually challenged students with a view to help provide them access to maximum 
reading material both for academic as well as other literary reading, ensuring 
that the libraries are located in such a way that maximum students are 
benefited by the same. 
The Libraries use the technology of Microcomputer based Electronic Braille 
Readers with software for reading Indian Languages and English Braille. This 
technology has been developed by Modular Infotech and manufactured by ACE both 
Pune companies, incorporating very user-friendly features for the visually 
handicapped users and an efficient storage system for Braille Books which saves 
up to 98 % space, and gives a virtually unlimited life for the books, he added 
Mr Raghunandan Joshi, the Joint Managing Director of Modular Infotech Private 
Limited said that the Braille Libraries, would be the first of their kind in 
India, and contain the following equipment in each library. Which includes - 
Five numbers of Microcomputer based electronic Braille Readers, from Automatic 
Control Equipments, Pune, one IBM compatible PC, Braille Library administrating 
software and Shree-Lipi Braille Software for automatic translation of books in 
Indian languages and English into Braille, from Modular Infotech, Pune, one 
Braille Embosser- for making hard-copies of books, High Speed Document Scanner 
with ADF, and Un-Interrupted Power Supply, for the equipment. He further said 
that the Braille embossers have been imported from Enabling Technologies USA 
and Index Braille Sweden, and the SARA scanner from Freedom Scientific USA. 
The project initiated by the company with active participation of Rotary Club 
Pune Westend, will have salient features of the Braille Library that features 
books in all Indian languages and English can be converted to Braille from 
their soft copies. 
After the conversion to Braille, these books are indexed and are stored in 
pen-drive storage devices in a compact manner. A normal 2 GB pen-drive can 
store upto 2000 or more books. A Library administration specially designed for 
the Braille Library, allows the pen-drives to be loaded with the books and 
their index lists. From these, required books can be stored for reading into 
the BRAILLE-MITRA Reader. Thus each Reader can work independently without the 
need of a PC. 
Mr. Joshi further added d that the key-unit of the Braille Library - BRAILLE 
MITRA is a Refreshable Braille Reader for visually handicapped and sightless 
people for reading in English and all 11 Indian Languages in Braille. It uses a 
new technology to have 'soft Braille books' which consists of Braille 
characters formed in a row, with each character having six dots made by smooth 
plastic pins, which are raised selectively, by electro-mechanical means to make 
a line of Braille characters. 
The 'feel' of this line, to the sightless person's index fingers is exactly 
same as that of 'feeling' an embossed Braille line in a Braille book. This 
Braille line, is driven by a micro-computer, which provides many additional 
features to the reader. BRAILLE-MITRA has the great advantage that after the 
person 'reads' a line, the next line appears automatically on the same place, 
and the person can easily read the display word-by-word and line-by-line. 
BRAILLE-MITRA can keep showing any number of books 'loaded' in its 
micro-computer's memory. 
The sightless person can virtually get an unlimited number of books for Braille 
reading on BRAILLE-MITRA, provided of course these books are available in 
Braille in soft form, as a computer file. BRAILLE-MITRA is silent, and has a 
variety of navigation features for the reader to make Braille reading a truly 
wonderful experience. 
Mr. Pradeep Newalkar, Ex-President of the Rotary Club Pune Westend, in whose 
tenure the project was initiated, said that two institutions that have been 
chosen by the Rotary Club for setting up the

Now, to come out of this, we use the pause option so that first that the

we

can listen/watch.

But, how to check weather the buffering has been completed or not?

To put in more simple words, how to check that weather the downloading of

Expecting experts suggestions.

[AI] Photography exhibition in Calcutta

2009-03-16 Thread Pamnani
You are cordially invited to the opening of BEYOND SIGHT an exhibition of 
photographs 

by the visually impaired on Saturday March 21, 2009, 3 pm -8 pm at West 
Gallery, Academy of Fine Arts, Kolkata 

 

 

"I met my friends half way on the staircase, we chat and they left. I could 
still hear them talk and then there was silence. Sound 

guided me to point the camera and click these pictures. My ear was my eye." 
-Rahul Shirsat 

 

The Exhibition is open from 

21 - 27, March on all days 

between 3pm to 8pm 

 

Project supported by 

Kodak, UnLtd India 

 

Beyond Sight is an exhibition of photographs taken by photographers with 
varying degrees of 

visual impairment, ranging from partial to total blindness. They use the camera 
as an extension of 

"self" to explore the visual world, gain deeper insight while recording their 
imagination and their 

point-of-view. Various touch, audio clues, memories of sight, warmth of light, 
cognitive skills and 

intuitive abilities are used by the visually impaired to create mental image 
before they take 

judgment to take a picture. 

 

The exhibition illuminates a new line of thought distinct from the way we 
approach photography, 

celebrates the human spirit of self-expression, helps to sensitize public, 
facilitates social 

inclusion and raises funds for the cause of visually impaired. 

 

Along with the normal photographs the exhibition provides touchable "raised" 
images, Braille 

footnotes, large prints, visual aids and audio description for the visually 
impaired visitors. 

 

Beyond Sight exhibition is the culmination of the Blind With Camera project 
started by Partho 

Bhowmick in association with the Victoria Memorial School for the Blind in 
Mumbai. The project 

is the first of its kind in India and member of a global consortium on art by 
the blind promoted by 

the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA. Beyond Sight has been exhibited 
at Mumbai, 

Bangalore and New Delhi, and presented at several conferences.

Hi Kenneth,

 Good evening (according to my country--it might be daytime there.)

 I do sympathize with you. I recognise the trouble that you took in 
drafting the mail. You gave a detailed step-by-step account of what you did 
to bring back the association to constitutional governance. I however don't 
interfear in your internal affairs. But I want to do something eventhough my 
effort is small. Contact me offlist so that I can ask for some more details.

welfareassociation back to the blind people



The trinidad and tobago blind welfare association was founded in 1914 by
a blind person. its council is elected every 2 years and consist of 12
elected members and 6 appointed by the government. for the past 9 years
the president mr. Dolsingh held no council meeting, no elections, no
annual general meeting and did not do any audit of the financial
transactions. i would appreciate it very much if you can email me your
support to return the trinidad and tobago blind welfare back to a path of
constitutional governance. the following is a step by step move we took
recently to do so. thank you very much. kenneth suratt.

1. On January 8 2009 the executive officer met with a delegation of blind
people and members of the past council members.
2. We agreed that election of a new council will take place on February
28 2009, and all constitutional requirements would be complied with.
3. On February 13 no notices were sent out by the executive officer.
4. As life member I took out a paid notice in the Trinidad Guardian
stating the date, time, venue and the purpose of this meeting.
5. On February 28 all members of the T.T.B.W.A. who were interested
attended to conduct the day's activities.
6. Last year we receive a list of the members of the T.T.B.W.A. from the
executive officer which we obtained after enforcing the freedom of
information act.
7. Those who were members started the meeting base on that list.
8. Mr. Peter Bourgeois was asked to chair the meeting.
9. A motion was moved to ratify all those who were in position of
membership receipts as new members. This was unanimously agreed upon
10. Mrs Muriel Branker was ask to conduct the election., and the require
12 members of council were voted in.
11. On March 2nd2009 a delegation from the newly elected council met with
the executive officer and she agreed to work with the new council, and
set the date for the first council meeting. That meeting was carded to
take place on Wednesday march 4th 2009 at 3 pm.
12. One hour before that council meeting the president Mr. Miguel Donawa
received a letter from Mrs. Borneo that she would no longer be working
with this council.

While we trade legal opinions on the legitimacy of this council, please
consider the will of the blind people. Thank you.

Dear Venkat

I am fully conversant with the definition of the word: pornography as
beside having a postgraduation in English, I happen to have it in Law and
Psychology as well, and so, no confusing it with sex education.
However, the terms like literary/artistic value, educational value are
best left to judicial discretion in most of the cases as they are
unnecessarily vague and are decided from case to case differently.
Besides, pornography, as it stands, should be equally accessible to
visually impaired as well, Visual impairment does not constitute a bond to
live a sinless and a straight life. Moreover my friend, stimulation of
sexual desire itself is a vital prerequisite for perpetuation of the
species and all such material can and is used for constructive purposes.
Accessibility, as I understand it, has for its purpose, minimization of
impact of visual or any other disabling loss on all activities good or
bad.

Respected Access Indians,

 I am surprised when I read Rajesh sir's response to a query on
pornography. I think that he might have taken pornography for sex
education. Here is a definition for the word "pornography" from a
dictionary.

 Creative activity (writing or pictures or films etc.) of no literary
or artistic value other than to stimulate sexual desire

 He further says that the people who discussed it are respected and
experienced persons then:

*Don't they know that this is not a place to raise that topic?

*Don't they know where that material is available?

 Regarding accessible pornographic material, if all feel such a thing
is required, then institutions like NIVH and NGOs like NAB and Mitr
Jyoti should come up with guidelines for the development of such
material.

[AI] New organic material may boost Internet speed

2009-03-16 Thread Renuka Warrier
The Hindu News Update Service
 
News Update Service
Monday, March 16, 2009 : 1245 Hrs   
Sci. & Tech.
New organic material may boost Internet speed 

Washington (IANS): Take two bricks out into a snowfall and place them side by 
side. In a few hours, the snowflakes will fill every vacant space between
and around the bricks. The same phenomenon could hasten the day when the 
Internet works at superfast speeds. 

Ivan Biaggio, physics professor at Lehigh University, says that using the same 
principle at the smallest of scales on an integrated optical circuit, scientists
are hoping to achieve a major leap in velocity by designing circuits that rely 
solely on light-waves process data. 

Biaggio is part of an international team of researchers that has developed an 
organic material with an unprecedented combination of high optical quality
and strong ability to mediate light-light interaction. 

He has engineered the integration of this material with silicon technology so 
it can be used in optical telecommunication devices. 

The material, which is composed of small organic molecules, mimics the 
behaviour of the snowflakes covering the bricks when it is deposited into the 
slot,
or gap, that separate silicon wave guides that control the propagation of light 
beams on an integrated optical circuit. 

Just as the snowflakes, being tiny and mobile, fill every empty space between 
the two bricks, Biaggio says, the molecules completely and homogeneously fill
the slot between the wave guides. The slots measure only tens of nanometres 
(nm) wide; one nm is a billionth of a metre, or a dozen carbon atoms wide.


"We have been able to make thin films by combining the molecules into a 
material that is perfectly transparent, flat, and free of any irregularities 
that
would affect optical properties," said Biaggio. 

The slot between the wave guides is the region where most of the light guided 
by the silicon propagates. By filling the slot, say Biaggio and his 
collaborators,
the molecules add an ultra-fast all-optical switching capability to silicon 
circuitry, creating a new ability to perform the light-to-light interactions
necessary for data processing in all-optical networks. 

The nanophotonic device obtained in this way, says the group, has demonstrated 
the best all-optical demultiplexing rate yet recorded for a 
silicon-organic-hybrid
device. 

Multiplexing is the process by which multiple signals or data streams are 
combined and transmitted on a single channel, thus saving expensive bandwidth.
Demultiplexing is the reverse process, said a Lehigh release. 

A description of this material was published on the Nature Photonics website.

Plastic is out, fingerprints are in
Niladri Bhattacharya / Mumbai February 11, 2009, 0:50 IST

Smart cards have been outsmarted as the country's largest lender, State
Bank of India (SBI), has come up with a card-less transactions that
requires only
an account holder's fingerprints.

The bank has decided to dispense with cards to lower the cost of
transactions, particularly for the disbursement of social security
pensions and wages under
the National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (NREGS).

Under the new system, which is been implemented across the country, a
point of sale (POS) machine, comprising bio-metric details of account
holders would
go to a particular village where the bank's customers can withdraw or
deposit funds using the fingerprint-based method.

Earlier, each account holder was given a card with a magnetic strip that
was swiped at the POS machine before any transaction. The price of a
smart card
depended on its memory. For instance, 4GB cards cost Rs 75, whereas it
costs Rs 140 for a 32GB card.

Since the inception of the NREGS in 2004, SBI had disbursed around 1.6
million smart cards across the country, before deciding to shift to the
new system
a couple of months ago. "In the last two months, we have opened more
than 400,000 accounts but we have not disbursed any smart cards thereby
saving close
to Rs 3 crore," said S Mukhopadhyay, deputy general manager in the
bank's rural banking department.

What has also helped the bank roll out the new system is the fact that 2
per cent of the no-frills account holders stepped out of their villages.
Since
most of the account holders only accessed the bank to receive the
pension or the NREGS payment, a banking correspondent could easily go
with a POS machine
at periodic intervals to help them complete their transactions.

"These villagers do not require inter-operability, which a smart card
offers, since most of them use their accounts only once a month to avail
of the NREG
scheme, practically the accounts remained dormant for the rest of the
month. Therefore, it was not cost-effective for the banks to carry on
with cards,"
an SBI executive said.

Other banks, however, have not shifted to card-less transactions.
"Different banks use different technologies and we are sticking to a
card-based system,
at least for the time being," said an executive at a public sector bank
executive. The cost-sa

This is certainly an interesting development. In fact a recent report in BBC

verification systems are being used by some non-prophet organizations in

Earlier, each account holder was given a card with a magnetic strip that 
was swiped at the POS machine before any transaction. The price of a smart 
card
depended on its memory. For instance, 4GB cards cost Rs 75, whereas it 
costs Rs 140 for a 32GB card.


Since the inception of the NREGS in 2004, SBI had disbursed around 1.6 
million smart cards across the country, before deciding to shift to the 
new system
a couple of months ago. "In the last two months, we have opened more than 
400,000 accounts but we have not disbursed any smart cards thereby saving 
close
to Rs 3 crore," said S Mukhopadhyay, deputy general manager in the bank's 
rural banking department.


What has also helped the bank roll out the new system is the fact that 2 
per cent of the no-frills account holders stepped out of their villages. 
Since
most of the account holders only accessed the bank to receive the pension 
or the NREGS payment, a banking correspondent could easily go with a POS 
machine

at periodic intervals to help them complete their transactions.

"These villagers do not require inter-operability, which a smart card 
offers, since most of them use their accounts only once a month to avail 
of the NREG
scheme, practically the accounts remained dormant for the rest of the 
month. Therefore, it was not cost-effective for the banks to carry on with 
cards,"

an SBI executive said.

Other banks, however, have not shifted to card-less transactions. 
"Different banks use different technologies and we are sticking to a 
card-based system,
at least for the time being," said an executive at a public sector bank 
executive. The cost-saving is not significant, added another banker

It is very sad to read on the subject again and again despite moderaters'

Well, responding to my point about   Indians shunning to describe even the 
essentials, you were found to dwell on cultural issues, so you say.
So, may I construe your stand in this matter of superiority of Indian 
culture over western to imply that such omissions are justified?

So curious!!!
And Shadab you have also wrote:
"But the one thing I am certain of is that pornography, from the 
standpoint of psychology, is wrong - not to talk about need. Haven't you 
studied it in your course?"
So, Psychology is far from a precise natural science as you seem to imply 
by demanding a clear statement about pornography being wrong.
Pornography may be harmful in some instances as it may encourage 
irresponsible or nonconsensual sex, but more often than not, it serves as 
bulwark against such activities by permitting a momentary ventilation to 
temporary passions without taking them out on unwilling and often 
unknowing persons.

Hardly few rapists are active readers of pornography.
And I still   am at a loss to comprehend  as to why the visual inability 
of a person should deprive him/her of all aspects of life.
It is tantamount to saying, as many people say, that the blind should only 
recite bhajans and not romantic songs or even the sad songs for  that 
matter.
Hence, If the moderator, without determining the questions of 
culture/morals or blindness being a compulsion to be good/harmless, 
decides that the focus of this list does not permit giving out sites 
dealing with accessible pornographic material, then let it be so, but 
please do not harp on superiority of Indian or any  other culture, or 
moral values of sexual forbearance, or blind being under an obligation to 
be saintly or asexual for that matter.
I vividly remember an instance in my school life when four of my 
schoolmates were involved in fornication (termed forced sex) later, a 
question was raised in Maharashtra legislative assembly, as to how these 
foursome got into a theater and then into a lodge despite their blindness 
and committed the act???
Though remorseful about the event, we nonetheless regarded it as step 
towards integration and were more outraged at the stupid MLAs who truly 
reflected constricted mindset of society at large.


And for those who are interested, the site
http://the-clitoris.com
is a beautiful and accessible site on feminine sexuality, and not clearly 
pornographic as it seems to be defined here.

Re: [AI] Frames

2009-03-16 Thread Amiyo Biswas
Hello,

Frames on html pages are used by designers for two reasons. It may be used
to keep separate certain portion of a web page, say for instance, links on
the lefthand frame and details on the righthand frame. Or they may use a
header frame on top to make sure that certain text and messages are
displayed continuously. The other advantage of a frame is that when a page
needs to be updated, only the section inside a frame needs to be updated. It
saves editing time.

For navigation, you may use the jaws keystroke insert+f9 for a list of
frames where you can use arrow keys to navigate and enter to activate. While
on a web page, use the letter m to move to the next frame, and shift+m to go
to the previous frame.


Best regards,

Amiyo Biswas.

Why does it take one or two months for approval or rejection? It should take 
hours and not days.

I got my ATM card in 10 mins.
Just go back to your bank and insist. Let me know what happens.

Dear Venkat

I am fully conversant with the definition of the word: pornography as beside 
having a postgraduation in English, I happen to have it in Law and Psychology 
as well, and so, no confusing it with sex education.
However, the terms like literary/artistic value, educational value are best 
left to judicial discretion in most of the cases as they are unnecessarily 
vague and are decided from case to case differently.
Besides, pornography, as it stands, should be equally accessible to visually 
impaired as well, Visual impairment does not constitute a bond to live a 
sinless and a straight life. Moreover my friend, stimulation of sexual desire 
itself is a vital prerequisite for perpetuation of the species and all such 
material can and is used for constructive purposes.
Accessibility, as I understand it, has for its purpose, minimization of impact 
of visual or any other disabling loss on all activities good or bad.
